Streatham |
I grew up in Streatham |
Teachers was givin' man tests |
Same time the mandem were givin' out testers |
I got peng tings givin' man stress |
I ain’t gotta sex it, message or text it |
I don’t wanna do you and I |
Like I’m in Leicester skippin' my lectures |
We used to ride 'round all reckless |
Stolen 'peds, that’s Geely and Vespas |
And the feds called my broski restless |
Said he got a charge in the car, no Tesla |
And everybody 'round me rowdy |
I walk in, tell the jeweler, «Wow me» |
If you’re talkin' 'bout P’s just 'low me |
19, I put 19 on an Audi |
I’ll never forget that day that I found me the cutest caramel brownie |
And the chest and back both bouncy |
Trust me, everyting shake, no Saudi |
My G just came out for a shooting |
And Ramz done a madness, charting |
Say that man got something in common |
'Cause trust me, both of their tings been barking |
If you see him at a drinkup, park him |
Do it like Jordan, run up and spark him |
My G’s been on badness, way before they had a moustache like Stalin |
And this ting’s all love and hate, 'cause a lot of man love to hate |
My young G done draws and eights |
Now he’s cuttin' through bricks like the 1−1-8 |
And I ain’t on indirects, diss me, and I take that personal |
How you gassed off a note that’s purple? |
Bet you never got it off white like Virgil |
Two men and an angry Merc |
That’s war wit' a German, Winston Churchill |
It’s mad when man wanna murk you |
But you know you gotta be in by curfew |
And I seen a lot of man get pressured, why? |
I grew up in Streatham |
And teachers was givin' man tests |
Same time mandem were givin' out testers |
I got peng tings givin' man stress |
I ain’t gotta sex it, message or text it |
I don’t wanna do you and I |
Like I’m in Leicester skippin' my lectures |
We used to roll 'round all stupid |
Mitcham Lane, that’s Streatham and Tooting |
I’m in East tryna link my girl |
'Cause I’ve got a baby, a crossbow like Cupid |
Man are dead or in jail, that’s useless |
Tell a yute, «If you’ve got a brain, then use it» |
Now I drive past man I went school with |
You was the cool kid, now you look clueless |
And I’m still tryna tell man, «Fuck the Audi, switch it for a Benz» |
When you’re tryna make it out the ends |
Friends of enemies are enemies |
And enemies of enemies are friends |
Fuck the Benz, I switch it for a Beamer |
Tell the dealer, «Need a bigger litre» |
He told me he’s on me when he sees me |
I barely remember why we’re beefin' |
But I grew up in Streatham |
And teachers was givin' man tests |
Same time mandem were givin' out testers |
I’ve got peng tings givin' me stress |
Nudes in the message, put in an effort |
But I don’t need a me and you |
Like when a chef would eat at his restaurant |
